Queensland Young Volunteer Awards 2008
Nominations are now open for the Queensland Young Volunteer Awards 2008.
In recognition of the important contribution young people make to our
community, the Queensland Government has established the Queensland Young
Volunteer Awards which gives eight awards of $2,000 to Queenslanders
between 12 and 25 years of age.
While recognising and rewarding outstanding volunteer efforts by young
Queenslanders, the awards also strengthen the knowledge and understanding
of volunteering by young people, the groups they support and their
communities.
Teachers, recognised community leaders and organisations that work with
young people can nominate young volunteers in one of two categories -
Individual or Group.
To be eligible for an award, the nominee must reside in Queensland and the
volunteering activities must have occurred in the last 12 months, while the
nominee was aged between 12 and 25 years.
Do you have someone in mind? Complete the nomination form
(available online at
http://www.communities.qld.gov.au/community/volunteering) and
tell us in no more than three A4 typed pages about the volunteering
activities of your nominated individual or group.
Submissions close Friday, 22 February 2008.
For further information please contact the Office for Volunteering by email
